Peas Paratha

















You Need
For filling
2 cups peas
8 green chillies
1 tbsp salt
1 tbsp GGP
1 tbsp amchur powder (dried mango powder)
1 tbsp dhaniya
1 tbsp cumin seeds

For cover
2 cups wheat flour
1 tsp salt
1 cup water
1 cup oil

Wash peas,mix with all other ingredients except cumin seeds and grind.
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a deep bottom pan.
Add cumin seeds and allow to splutter.
Now saute the paste for few mins.
Mix salt and 1 tbsp oil in wheat flour and knead into smooth dough using water.
Cover and let stay for 20 mins.
When the mix is cooled down, make ping pong size balls of the dough.
Roll slightly and stuff 1.5 tbsp of peas mix.
Close the ends properly and roll into parathas.
Shallow fry using oil.
Top with 1 tsp butter before serving with curds,pickle and thin onion slices.

My Tip- You could also make puris instead of parathas.
